Fantastic food! Very personable, friendly service. We tried several items on the menu and shared them. Not one disappointing item served! Flavorful and a wide variety of foods offered. The cabbage rolls were a table favorite, along with the herb spread for the rolls. We look forward to coming back and trying each menu item!

Everything about this experience was excellent! Our waitiler was nice, explained things well to us.The food was outstanding. Started with spring salad that was delicious. The clay pot was a great choice! It was a delicious bread with beef stew like contents that were scrumptious. The Honey Cake and lemon glazed blueberry sconce were great choices also!

Such a nice restaurant, I had the mushroom soup and it was so good. The waitress brought us bread and a topping as soon as our drinks were served, that is warm bread! I will go back

Very conflicted to be honest. It was our first time our 18y anniversary we wanted to try somthing new. There was only 1 worker doing it all granted she was lovely kind hard worker never stoped so apologetic becuase 1/3rd the menue they were out of so we didn't really get much choice. So the food was fridge stored in containers and remicrowaved you could hear and watch it all and the dishwashing after and food tasted not bad just like it coulda been good but was deff.leftovers however the dip for the bread that was bad. We was not expecting to get leftover microwaved food and not to even have much choice when their was not much choice it was a small menue anyway. The food was not bad, the ice cream was the only saving grace it was realy good the pastry it came with was obv not cooked that day as well. Just was not impressed what the hubby ordered was so small not worth the price he was still hungry he got the 2 crapes. Mine was just a at home beef strew with a fancy bread. All of it could have been great n amazing but that price 16$ for a microwaved beef stew n fancy bread topper that tasted reheated as well not fresh even close. Was hoping for this to be a new spot but to be honest will not go back, microwaving everything I can do at home. Conflicted cuz the young lady was so sweet apoligising for evening even all the misspellings and incorrect things line I wanted the carrot mash potatoes and that's no longer a thing.

Oleysa's Kitchen is a lovely and authentic Ukrainian Restaurant. All the food that I have tried is delicious and traditional. The cabbage rolls were fantastic. The potato rolls were delicious. I like that there is traditional toll painting in the restaurant and a Ukrainian flag and that the woman who owns the restaurant is from Ukraine. I always like supporting local restaurants, especially when they're charming and unique like this one.

I ordered chicken stroganoff with rice and cabbage salad over GrubHub. This food is extremely delicious and feels like a homemade food your mom cooks for you. It is definitely a comfort food. The food was delivered very fast. I have so much respect for the restaurants that care about their delivery customers to such details.There is a scarcity of restaurants in Columbus, Indiana that are on the healthier and home-made feel side and this restaurant marks all the good points.My only suggestion is to provide the customers with option to choose between white rice vs brown rice.I am excited now to check this restaurant in person for first time and try the rest of their menu options.
We had a cozy, delicious meal of mushroom soup, cabbage rolls, and sour crepes with chicken. I’ll be ordering takeout on those sleepy rainy days!

Indoor and outdoor seating available. Very friendly and inviting staff willing to answer any questions a newcomer may have about the food and its ingredients. Food presentation was exactly as they post pictures of themselves, very visually appealing plates. As first time visitors we plan to be back for future visits!
Very tasty and unique options. Nothing else around like it. Only downside was the painfully long wait. (1.5hrs +) Young lady working that evening was keenly aware of the situation and offered her apologies. Will give it a second try in the future.
I ate at Olyessa's Kitchen for the first time. Shame on me for not visiting this restaurant sooner. The food is absolutely delicious. The facility is spotlessly clean and the service was wonderful. The helpings are generous and really enough for 2 meals. I can highly recommend this restaurant.

We're blessed to have this amazing food offered in Columbus. As a vegetarian, there's plenty of options, which is sometimes hard to find outside of a salad or bean burger. Great service. Highly recommended.
